Salute: Kancheepuram Corporation Engineer Fixes 3-Year-Old Drainage Issue in KK Nagar Ward
In a rare display of prompt civic action, Kancheepuram Corporation Engineer Mr. Selvakumar, Ward 12, resolved a long-standing drainage overflow issue in KK Nagar within 48 hours of a VizhiTN report being filed. The issue: A blocked storm water drain on KK Nagar 3rd Cross Street had been overflowing into the road and three adjacent houses for over 3 years, causing waterlogging and mosquito breeding every monsoon season. What happened: - Report filed on VizhiTN: September 12, 2026 - Corporation team arrived for inspection: September 13 morning - Full desilting and drain cover replacement completed: September 13 evening - Total resolution time: Under 36 hours Mr. Selvakumar personally supervised the work and ensured the drain covers were properly seated to prevent future overflow. Resident Mrs. Meenakshi, 3rd Cross Street: expressed gratitude saying this was the first time in 3 years the drain was properly cleaned. This is what responsive civic administration looks like. More officers like Mr. Selvakumar, please.
